Re: Sending a string with $_POST/$_GET

I want to write a string to a variable and use $_POST or $_GET to retrieve it on another page. I keep gettting an undefined index errror. Can someone show me how this is done? Do I have to use session_start() ?

This would be ideal.

Have checked the documentation, can't find a really basic example.

Well you didn't post any code, so I can't give you specifics, but a crude example is : <?php session_start(); $_SESSION['some-string'] = "hello I am a string"; echo '<a href="page2.php">Read the string</a>'; ?> <?php session_start(); echo 'String is : '.$_SESSION['some-string']; ?>
